After upgrading my other VIPERs with a few extra details, I thought I'd try repainting the canopy on my civilian version in the same way as I did on my Land Rovers.
It didn't work quite as well, but it's still better than the gloss black I started with, so I'm happy. I'm sure I'll improve over time the more I practice.
The canopies received a coat of gloss medium afterwards, for a nice shiny finish. I picked up the tube of gloss medium just before Christmas and I've used it on a few things now, either giving a sheen on canopies, or improving the appearance of the water on my amphibious APC. It will certainly come in useful when I make a larger wargame board later this year which will have a few patches of water on it.
